Gao Ning cried while getting into the sedan chair. The housekeeper and maid dared not delay, so he quickly asked the sedan chair owner to take his wife back to the Xuanhua County Government where Gao Ji, the governor of Nanning Prefecture, temporarily stayed.

Along the way, Gao Ning kept crying, and when he arrived at the county government office, Gao Ning cried even more, causing people along the way to stop and watch.

Gao Ji was waiting for news in the main hall. When he heard that his daughter-in-law was crying, he felt something was wrong and immediately went out to greet him... Gao Ning was surrounded by officials and officials from the county government office and the yamen staff to the hall. He saw the scars on his daughter-in-law's face, which seemed to be beaten. He was surprised. Instead, he saw the crowd around him talking and shouted angrily: "What are you looking at? There is nothing you have to do here, leave!"

The officials and the yamen left with confusion, and they secretly wondered why the young lady was beaten? But there was an insider who knew that Gao Ning went to the government office to see the troops from the six provinces to promote Chen Xi, and he should have been bullied outside. However, because of the official dispute, Chen Xi was still the one who held great power like Chen Xi, so no one dared to comment.

Gao Ning wiped his tears into the main hall. Gao Ji quickly asked, "Daughter-in-law, what's wrong with you...? Could it be that the guy Chen Xi beat him?"

Knowing that his daughter-in-law was bullied, Gao Ji instantly regarded Chen Xi as his enemy.

Gao Ning's expression flashed, looked at the butler and maid at the door, and Gao Ji waved his hand in thought, "Look at the good things you have done, and retreat!"

The housekeeper and the maid still don’t know what happened. They only know that their wives were beaten in the military camp. As for the specific reason, they were confused.

...

...

Gao Ning did not explain directly to Gao Ji. When she and Gao Ji were left in the main hall, she wiped her tears, and did not speak, and went straight to the back hall.

Gao Ji followed behind and asked. When he arrived at the back hall, Gao Ning's expression returned to his calm: "My husband, I am incompetent. I went to Lord Shen's tent to discuss matters. I never thought I would be beaten by him!"

Gao Ji was furious: "What? The child surnamed Chen beat you personally? I don't want to settle the score with him..."

Gao's family passed down the family's poetry and books, and they are respectful of their faces. Even if Gao Ji likes to avoid things, he just needs to live by himself. But if he says that his family is beaten and still remains indifferent, it would be a bit unreasonable. As expected, Gao Ji immediately said angrily that he wanted to settle the score with Chen Xi. Gao Ning stepped forward to stop him and said:

"My husband, my wife has not lost her integrity. I am just a strategic mistake. I roared in the court in front of Lord Shen. He found a woman in the army to take a ten-point penis, but she didn't have much strength!"

Gao Ji said angrily: "That's not possible. You are my Gao Ji's daughter-in-law, and your husband is also famous. How can you be beaten and ignored?"

Gao Ning's eyes were no longer as weak as before, with a hint of sinisterness in his eyes: "My husband, I was crying before, for outsiders to see. When I entered the government office, many people witnessed it with their own eyes. I stayed inside for half a day and returned home, with scars on my body and returning crying. What would others think?"

Gao Ji said angrily: "What else can you do? The surname Chen must be considered as a beastly thing! You..." Speaking of this, Gao Ji seemed to realize something and looked at his daughter-in-law with a shocked look.

Gao Ning's mouth showed a gloomy smile: "That's what I mean. I want everyone to know that I was bullied by Chen's surname. Not only did he destroy my innocence, but he also beat me up because I swear to death, so that I have no shame to be a human being..."

Gao Ji was shocked by the cruel expression on Gao Ning's face and stuttered: "Son... Daughter-in-law, what are you going to do? You...you..."

Gao Ning looked determined: "Don't worry, my husband, I will never dirty the Gao family's lintel. Since I have humiliated the Gao family's family, I will naturally show my ambitions by dying!"

"Nothing!" Gao Ji was a little anxious and quickly dissuaded, "What are you doing? The man surnamed Chen just asked the mother-in-law to beat you. At most, I went over to condemn him and asked him to apologize. You... how could you do something to despise your life? Have you ever thought about Jing'er and your husband?"

Gao Ji felt that things were completely beyond his control. His daughter-in-law had just been slapped in the face a few times, and she would break herself up and accused Chen Xi** of plundering, hoping that the other party would be ruined, which was difficult for a moment to understand.

Gao Ning's attitude was firm: "The family man doesn't need to persuade him anymore. Today's shame is that I must not thank you for my death. The surname Chen must pay the price for his ignorance!"

Gao Ji couldn't get up in one breath and almost fainted on the ground. He held the table tremblingly, unable to understand his daughter-in-law's crazy behavior.

Gao Ning came forward to support Gao Ji, and Gao Ji said furiously: "Daughter-in-law, you...even if you want Chen Xi to be disgraced, you have to act within your ability. He has soldiers... However, if you are determined to do this, you don't have to force him to die. It's better to have a show. You pretend to be self-destructive. I will bring people in to save you. In front of the gentry, I will complain about the crime of the evil man... The people will be together with you..."

At this time, Gao Ji was already making the final move. He could not let his grandson lose his mother at a young age, nor could his son lose his wife. At the same time, he admired Gao Ning's resourcefulness and did not want to have a military advisor around him who could give him advice.
